Tuesday, March 27, 2007 Henry and Vienna host a dinner party at the Lakeview. There are only three guests - Katie and the Snyder boys - and all of them end up leaving when Katie gets upset by something that reminds her of Simon. Vienna is momentarily jealous of Katie, but is reassured when Henry tells her that Katie is his past while Vienna is his present. Today’s episode was directed by Michael Eilbaum and written by Judy Tate.
Transcripts from TVMegasite Katie: Hi, Lloyd. Hey -- Waiter: You look totally hot, Mrs. Kasnoff. I mean, Peretti. I mean -- Katie: It's okay. It's okay. It can get confusing. I understand. I thank you for the compliment. I'm actually here for the Coleman party. Waiter: Right this way. Katie: I guess I'm the only one here. Waiter: Anything I can get you? Katie: Um -- Henry: Yes, she will have your driest champagne and your blackest beluga. Oh, you're here. Katie: Where is everybody? Where are all your friends? Henry: They're all here. Katie: What do you mean? You have other friends. Henry: Yes, but not as beautiful or intelligent as you are. I'm just going to have to wait for Vienna's. Katie: Oh, I wasn't aware she had an entourage in Oakdale, too. Henry: No, she doesn't, she just knows one or two people. I'm sure Emma Snyder will be at the top of the list. Katie: Ooh, boy. No, no, no. If Emma Snyder's going to be here, I might have to go. Henry: Why? Katie: She's not too happy with me right now. Henry: Oh, don't be ridiculous. Katie: No, I started a brawl in her kitchen on Christmas day. It didn't exactly endear me. Henry: You know Emma, she has a very forgiving heart. Katie: I know how she treats the women who hurt the boy she loves. She knows what I did to mike. She knows -- Henry: Calm down. Calm down. Okay? Emma is nothing, if not a woman of great manners. Even if she is angry with you, she'll be too polite to say anything about it. Here, have a seat, will you, please? Sit down. Okay? You can have a glass of bubbly. Katie: Okay. Henry: And I'm going to see if I can track down lady Hyatt.
Henry: Sweetie, you never did tell me why you were so determined to invite Detective Snyder. Vienna: He's a very nice man. Henry: Yes, he is. But with my help, that very nice man's ex ran off with your ex. Vienna: Well, so what? You know, from the looks of it, it seems like Jack has forgotten all about Carly and Simon. Henry: Um, yeah. Vienna: Hello, my darlings. Jack: Hello there. Henry: Hi. Jack: How are you? Congratulations. Vienna: Thank you. Jack: Please. Vienna: Well, I don't see Brad anywhere. He hasn't arrived yet? Jack: I didn't know he was invited. Katie: That should be interesting. Vienna: I do hope he comes. I wanted to talk to him about our relationship. Jack: Yes, when you invited him, did you tell him there was a dress code? Because I don't think he owns a tie. Vienna: Well, I hope he doesn't hold a grudge against Henry for stealing me away. You know, of course, me and Brad never slept together. Henry: Hey, you know, sweetheart, you know that word i taught you that you thought was so cute? Overshare? That was an overshare. [ Cell phone rings ] Jack: Oh, excuse me. Sorry. Snyder. What? Now? Did you send a black and white? Okay, yeah. All right, give me ten minutes. Yeah. Bye. I'm sorry. We've got a burglary. And I've got to go stop some bad guys. But I'm sorry, I'm going to miss dinner. Katie: Are you sure that someone else can't take care of it? Jack: Well, I'll see what the story is and then if I can get someone to cover it, then yeah, I will be back. But thank you very much for the invite, Vienna. Bye. Henry: So -- so, how are things at "Oakdale Now?" Katie: They're going very well, actually. I was just telling Jack that things are looking up. They're much better than they were a couple of weeks ago. Henry: That's good. It's got to be difficult to come up with new ideas for stories all the time. Katie: Well, you never know what the audience is going to like. Vienna: Like me. Katie: I'm sorry? Vienna: Yeah, people love to watch the rich and fabulous on T.V. They want to see how we live and love. But then again, I'm not rich anymore. It's all about Henry now. Henry: Oh, cupcake. Vienna: Maybe you should have Henry on your show. Katie: Henry -- Henry: Oh, she's kidding. You're kidding, right? Vienna: No, no, no. You like to have expert guests, don't you, Katie? You know, to give advice? Because Henry, he knows all there is to know about how to make a woman happy. Henry: She's -- she's exaggerating. Vienna: No, I'm not. I'm not. Just last night, she showed me this amazing little technique. He calls it the Egyptian tingle. And now, I know there's a heaven. Katie: Okay, you know what? That is enlightening. I'm going to go powder my nose. Vienna: Egyptian tickle.
Katie: Look who I found. Henry: Hey. Vienna: I'm so glad you can come to our party. Brad: If you don't mind, I never turn down anything with bubbles, foam, or an 80-proof label. Henry: Well, that's a man after my own heart. Katie: And it looks like your brother was wrong. You do own a tie. Brad: Oh, what, this? Oh, it's his. Vienna: Uh-huh. Brad: So, Oakdale U started spring training. Henry: Oh, yeah. My bookie knows about that. Brad: You wager on baseball? Cool. See, my passion is cards. You wouldn't happen to know of any poker games that need an extra hand? Henry: Actually yeah, there's one down on Washington Street. I'm sure we could elbow our way into that. Vienna: Okay, have you forgotten we're hosting a party? Henry: Just one hand, darling. Maybe two. I feel lady luck on my shoulder. Vienna: Shh. Shh. Do you hear that? Oh, I love that melody on the guitar. Come on, let's go the dance floor. Mi amore, hold me in your arms. Henry: What do you mean, Katie left? Vienna: But we haven't even had our middag. Brad: Our what? Henry: It's a Swedish thing. What happened? Brad: She just -- she ran out. Henry: Did you say something to her? Brad: No, man, I didn't say something to her. We were having a great time. I got up, I started playing, then she bolted. Relax. Henry: Well, all right, all right, all right. Usually when she's upset, she goes to old town, she does a little window shopping. I'm going to go see if I can find her -- Brad: Whoa, whoa, okay hey lover boy. All right, I upset her. So, I'll go find her. Vienna: Our dinner's barely begun. Brad: Sorry, baby. Henry: I'm not happy about this. Vienna: Me neither. I mean, we don't have any guests here. Henry: We shouldn't have let Brad go after Katie. I mean, there's been nothing but grief for her ever since they started working together. He should not be the one to go and console her. Vienna: I'm not so sure about that. Henry: She's told me a million times she can't stand the guy. Vienna: Well, why was she all smiles when he entered? Henry: I don't know -- maybe she didn't want to think the party was a bust. Vienna: This party's not a bust. Henry: Where is everybody, Vienna? Jack: I got somebody to cover for me. Vienna: See? Jack: Where's Katie? Henry: I don't know. Brad said something to her and she left. Jack: I wasn't -- I wasn't even gone that long. How did he manage to run her off so fast? Vienna: He played the guitar for her and I thought it was very sweet. Jack: Okay, well, it looks like I'm going to have to take a rain check on dinner after all. Vienna: Oh, no. Jack: I'm sorry. Henry: Okay. Vienna: Why do everybody have to run after that blonde killjoy? Henry: Because people want Katie to be happy -- Vienna: No, because men thinks it's their duty to cheer her up -- well, enough of that. Enough of that. That woman, she need a man. A man of her own.
Henry: Vienna, if you think Katie needs a man -- Vienna: Not just any man, a man of her own. Henry: Men are the reason that she's in the shape she is now. The grief of another heartache is the last thing that bubbles needs right now. Vienna: Why does it have to be heartache? Henry: Have you ever heard of a time-out? Vienna: A time what? Henry: A time-out. A time-out. It's okay for her to be single right now. Vienna: But -- so you don't want her to find any man. Is that what you mean? Henry: No, of course, no that's not what I meant. I'm just -- why wouldn't I want her to be happy with somebody eventually? Vienna: You were just being nice to her so she could be with mike. But now that mike is no longer there, you know, maybe you're hoping she'll come back to you. Henry: No, no, that's absurd. Vienna: Are you sitting there and you're telling me that has never crossed your mind? You know, this party is over. Henry: Vienna? Vienna: No. Henry: Vienna, come on. Hold up now.
Henry: Vienna, come here -- hey, come here, what's wrong? Vienna: No, I should have known that this was coming. Henry: That what was coming? Vienna: A broken heart. The reason why you don't want Katie to find a man is because you're still in love with her. Henry: Look, I never denied that I still love Katie. But I'm in love with you. Vienna: Well, I don't believe you. Henry: Don't you remember why you fell in love with me in the first place? My devotion to Katie, you thought that was beautiful. Vienna: That's true, but it's different now that we're in love. Henry: Listen, listen, listen, Katie was my past. You are my here and now. I don't want her anymore. Why would I want her when you make me more tempted and satisfied than anyone I have ever met in my life? Vienna: Really? Henry: Absolutely. Vienna: Katie's just a child, isn't she? Henry: She's just a child. And you're all woman. [ Elevator dings ] Let's go back to the party. Vienna: No. I'm going to take you to a private party.
